Abstract
We provide a brief overview of Verizon’s initial SDN/NFV deployments and then describe future directions being evaluated and implemented to expand the SDN/NFV infrastructure’s usefullness. We will discuss ideas for implementing performance-sensitive VNFs, to include optical network elements, and using SDN/NFV to improve infrastructure security.
